The second trailer for Joker: Folie à Deux is here: Watch Lady Gaga’s Harley Quinn and Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker tease origin stories and explosive antics below. The Joker sequel, directed by Todd Phillips, arrives October 4.
Brendan Gleeson features in the trailer, and the movie also stars a returning Zazie Beetz (of Atlanta) as Sophie Dumond. Catherine Keener, Ken Leung, and Steve Coogan also reportedly star in the film. Gaga, whose last major role was in House of Gucci, shared a first-look image of her Harley Quinn character last year.
